Express Sport brings you every Premier League club's fastest player this season

Claudio Ranieri’s men have won just one league game since December 10 and it is that disastrous run that has the defending champions looking over their shoulders. However, Leicester chiefs gave their “unwavering” support for under-fire boss Ranieri this week.

Swansea, meanwhile, look like a completely different team under Clement after the former Real Madrid and Bayern Munich assistant succeeded Bob Bradley in January.

Mawson has been an unlikely source of the Welsh side’s goals, scoring in two of Swansea’s three wins since the turn of the year, while forming a solid partnership with Argentine Federico Fernandez at the heart of their defence.

Swans midfielder Jack Cork has been full of praise for Mawson, 23, who has impressed since his £5million summer switch from Barnsley.

“He’s a good lad, a great player with quality and he’s reliable,” said Cork. “He’s only young. The more he plays and the more confidence he gets in the Premier League, I’m sure he’ll be a great player.

“He’s a big presence at both ends of the pitch and off it as well. It’s good to have someone you know is going to compete and be aggressive and shout and talk. He’s a proper centre-half.”

Hull and Sunderland, like Swansea, are showing signs of life at the bottom of the table which makes Sunday’s showdown in south Wales even more crucial.
